    On this channel we like to do a lot of dogfighting most videos are some sort of dogfight between 2 different aircraft as we explore their different capabilities. From time to time I like to dabble in Virtual Reality, I think VR is a great new technology and I love to show that stuff off for the channel from time to time.
    If you enjoy war thunder or Microsoft flight simulator 2020 or even dogfighting in Battlefield 2042, consider getting yourself into Digital Combat Simulator by Eagle Dynamics, the Combat side of Aviation with the BVR and Dogfights really provides a different and interesting perspective on aviation. You can fly all kinds of combat aircraft including the F-16, F-15, F-14, JF-17, Su-27, Mig-29, Mirage and the F-18 Hornet along with many other aircraft and helicopters like the Ka-50 and Mi-8.

    Speaking of the East German MiG-29s, I read an interview with the first USAF pilot to fly the MiG-29. He was an exchange pilot to the Luftwaffe shortly after Reunification when they were integrating the 2 German armed forces. He said the MiG was like flying a big F-16 with some extra tricks. This was when NATO was learning about the HOBS capability of the AA-11 Archer, and was playing catch up. For sure the MiG has some tricks to play as a dogfighter that could catch enemies off guard, but it's very old tech, especially vs the Rhino.

    I’m a huge fan of the F/A-18, so whenever I see it come up on this channel I’m usually a little bummed when it so often gets outshone by its other fourth generation colleagues in a dogfight (particularly against the F-16). Safe to say after this video and the last one against the J-35, I’m happy to see the Hornet still has its sting :)

    @confuse3671 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

    What? Legacy Hornet had roll rates like 720/second! Ridiculously fast. Super hornet has more thrust, better control in high AOA (legacy had an issue with asymetric bomb loads - like if you dropped one - at high AOA it would go into a spin). Also, Super Hornet has significantly higher thrust to weight. With half a tank of gas more like 1.1:1 So it's a Hornet that not only can get slow, but theoretically get fast again. Also the front aspect RCS is roughly .2 M (the legacy about 2.0M)

    For me the MiG-29 is kind of an overall mix of an F-8 Crusader (short legs) and a legacy Hornet (modernized aerodynamics). If the late model Crusader was in DCS I'd request a dogfight between an early MiG-29 and the late model F-8.

      There's an F-15 pilot on Quora or someplace that refers to it quite a bit. Seemed odd, I didn't think the Eagle's closely-spaced engines would have made much use out of the technique. But she said something about how pilots in the early days had to get comfortable with asymmetric thrust for tanking, before the KC-135s got re-engined. Throttle back on one and put the other in min afterburner, sort of like the B-1B has to do sometimes when loaded down.
